Rebirth, regeneration.

What kind of doctor will this new doctor be? And what adventures lie awaiting him and his band of companions. And more importantly, what evil lurks behind the shadows?



Welcome, welcome everyone.

Here are the basic ground rules:
1) Each day ends at 8pm EST. This is a firm deadline. No extensions. If it is tied after that point, well, we have our ways of dealing with this. Lynches may end early if there is a reason to do so. We may try to speed up things as the game dictates, but each deadline is firm. Each night ends at 8am EST. Again, Firm. Any missing PM's will be randomized if vital or will be unused if optional. We always will accept contingencies.
2) Unless otherwise instructed, you may freely PM within your time period. Please keep tabs on where you are in time, because time is relative and fluid. Most nights at least 1 if not more people will be traveling in time.
3) Please include both @Escalla and @thedrjojo on all mod PMs.
4) LIS rule is in effect and will be strictly enforced. Like I said, contingencies will always be accepted. If lynches end early, then the LIS rule is suspended during that round.
5) As always, no post editing!
6) While this is a Redux of Dr. Who WW game done last year, this is an entirely new game. The topic is the same, but pretty much that's it. So no need to refer to the previous game, as it will give you no hints or insight.

Today is Day 1... Which happens to be Christmas day! And a vote of no confidence just ousted your prime minister. Please elect a new Prime Minister. Voting ends when we have a plurality or 8pm EST. We welcome night time actions as well, since if we get them in quickly enough, we might be able to speed things up.

Oh, and did I mention, THIS IS A CLOSED BALLOT ELECTION. Please PM your vote to Escalla and I. No votes on the open forum will count. Please campaign all you'd like.

Don't just vote for me, join me! As we travel through time, frolic through meadows, crush the skulls of wolves, and have a jolly good time.

A vote for Chillbo is a vote for good.

Vote for me. I've never gotten to be the leader in the beginning. And I know the show pretty well. And this time I don't have an ultra confusing mace.

You guys realize that you have to actually PM the mods with a vote? A lot of campaigning, not a lot of voting.

Remember, Vote early and vote often!

I'd like to be Prime Minister but I don't think it will happen.

Can someone remind me about the LIS rule. I've not played in here in probably 6-9 months.

You must cast a lynch vote every day or otherwise send in a contingency. Each missed vote is a strike, 3 strikes gets you mod-killed. If day is closed early, then the rule is suspended for that day.

19 people have voted so far. Only 7 More to go!

It is getting interesting. The tally is close between 3 people...

Then again, you don't believe me, now do you?

4 hours to vote! This vote does count for the LIS rule as well, so I will be calling people out who didn't vote.

Ugh, have to second the "no attractive guys" notion that was mentioned earlier...so I've had to resort to a mouse

Not classically attractive, agreed....but intelligence is sexy. :naughty:

Each one grew on me (I resented each new one as I started to love the previous one). The challenge will be if #12 will. Not looking forward to that. :cryi:

Didn't even realize John was one of them until today...he's definitely not bad to look at IRL anyways.

I'd bang Matt Smith's voice.

Then again I'm half Brit. I grew up saying all the dialect oddities and slang.

Only problem is when I say it in my (natural) American accent I just sound ******ed.

Just love the accent. Wait, does that mean I have daddy issues? Aw sheet.

Ooooh Scottish....

I could listen to Rory McCann all day.

Brb gonna watch GoT.

Good dog, good dog.

Uggh but the books are SO MUCH BETTER. SO. MUCH. BETTER. So glad I read them before I started watching. I feel like certain story arcs have been completely abandoned or otherwise ****ed up by the writers.

I read about the first third of the first book before I watched. I wanted to read them all first, but I was like, "There's no way I'm gonna get through these before something gets spoiled." I'm still planning on reading them all, though.
